I was standing right there when the car was being inspected. I Know for sure those tie rods were shot.. not only could i see the play, i could hear it clunking as the tech wiggled the wheel... I wouldn't worry so much about CMS taking you for a ride, just silverhill passing unsafe cars.:thumbsdow

LOL

You think Silverhill is a more honourable garage than Contemporary Motorsports?
Bullshit
I've been inside and out of both shops. I can probably still name every tech at both shops.
Who did your inspection at each shop? I'd love to compare those two people on an open forum.

Trusting Silverhill should be a punishable offense. Don't slander CMS over petty shit like this, or I'll bust out the VIN #'s of all the shady piece-of-shit Eastern cars on Silverhills lot. If I get started on Silverhill, my blood pressure will skyrocket.

If I were this guy, I would head to one more garage and get it inspected and see what they say. With one shop passing it and the other not passing it, that would definitely raise some flags with me and I would want to get one more opinion.

And if I were you bro, I would take it to an independent garage, not one at the stealerships.

I agree it's a good thing CMS found something wrong, and don't forget, even finding problems with customer's cars; the customers knows they are not obligated to puchase the repair service from them. (so no point in lying about something's wrong)

Certainly.
Silverhill Acura actively purchases cars intended for the used market from Eastern provinces. They enjoy the benefits of a far cheaper purchase price while completely ignoring the infamous damage brought on by driving conditions subjected to the vehicle. What really disgusts me, is that finding a salesman who is willing to admit that the car was bought OOP is like wrestling an elephant to the ground. Especially when the Carfax account in the next forum tells me otherwise. As if the rust on the strut towers and the "rust protectant" under paint didn't already raise a few red flags ..... Which leads me to the ethics of your technicians ; More specifically with how they find it satisfactory to comply with obviously skewed variations of safety. Funny.... I wasn't aware that under coat could be applied to the strut towers as well. Another obvious attempt to disguise the rust :rolleyes: I also feel the need to expresss my contempt at how Silverhill Acura will even comparatively price Eastern vehicles to further their profit. The original bargain price was not enough ; The real gouge begins when the vehicle is given the price tag of a full bred Alberta vehicle.

I've been on Silverhill's lot no less than 15 times in the last two and a half years, looking for cars for family and friends. Each time it's the car that brings us there, definitely nothing else. I would NEVER purchase my own personal vehicle from Silverhill Acura. Dishonesty has permanentaly swayed me, while the occasional honest product still lures my friends. Only 2 of my friends have finalized a sale there. ONLY because the history of the vehicle was satisfactory.

Enough elaboration for you? :rolleyes:

I have no idea who "Marilyn" is anyway :dunno: I hope she holds a position of importance, and that you let her read this if she does. I'm friends with Dave (Nortel) ; Would you care to elaborate on the described reputation of Silverhill?

Told you my blood pressure would shoot up!!

WEll, I do find it and interesting read non-the-less. I'm not really that big a fan either, mainly because of the really :nut: prices at times (e.g., 50k for a 199X NSX w/ 100k kms)

Accord_Tunerx, please learn how to type in coherant, complete sentences before busting out a rant.

Not only will it alleviate tons of us from headaches trying to decifer your childish rambling, but makes your story seem a bit more plausible.

Now onto CMS, they're one of the few shops around town I would only trust to touch/work on my car.

So go get your car approved at silverhill and we'll see you in the ditch in a month :thumbsup:

I'm glad you wish a ditch upon him Wayne. It's a tie rod, what if that ditch ends up being the front of my Truck! I don't like the taste of Airbag! :D

I have been to Silverhill a couple times myself. Not once did I have even a satisfactory visit. :thumbsdow

Accord_tunerx, I REALLY don't think any of the CMS guys are stretching the truth in what they say. Their statements seem to come in way of concern for you and your car. You don't necessarily need a Honda Specific shop to prove either of the two shops wrong or right. Get a third opinion for yours and every one else on the roads safety.

While all the CMS guys are watching this spot, I guess I should mention this. I'm the guy with the Mercedes who came in a few weeks ago. Sorry if I came off like an asshole, I wasn't trying to cause any problems, just a little frustrated with other things. I felt bad about it afterwards.

I'm quite impressed with the work you guys do and will recommend you to anyone. Thanks! :thumbsup:

does CMS do everything that silverhill would do for maintenance and for a lower price? hehe :D i've also never been comfortable leaving my car at silverhill as everytime i get it back, i have a feeling that my car has been bagged for the fun of it. maybe i'll switch over to CMS for the maintenance of my car.

And to answer your other question, yes OEM parts are more expensive than aftermarket for the most part.

Ok so you spent $100 on one inspection then what another $90? So your at $190, now you want to go to a third shop spend another who knows how much when you could of had your car fixed already. Stop wasting your money getting it inspected. It already passed you should be happy.

Seeing that you are all down with Ms Marilyn. Perhaps you can inform her that she needs to either replan her route to a successfull business, or in my case of complaint, slap, beat, retrain her existing circus monkeys, or recruit new staff that may actually care.

The place blows!! Get her to read this thread, (although the content on here is hardly enough to raise concern on her part) but it may make her think about the percentage of posts in a one topic thread that are against her business.

Why don't you quit beating a dead fucking horse. Who gives a fuck if you "know" this woman? Nobody. They make some solid points to back up the argument that the place blows and you keep saying "blah blah blah but she's so successful....blah blah". I don't see anyone backing up their "good" reputation for christs sake.

Seriously, are you hoping she stumbles across this forum and finds you as her knight in shining armour bringing her salvation and you'll get a free blowjob? Just let it go man.

Where is she now? I would say running a dealership that has a general bad reputation due to something gone wrong regardless of what her bank account / net worth looks like.

If she took over when it was 15 million in debt....does that not paint a pretty picture? If her husband ran the show like other successfull dealership owners, perhaps there wouldn't be as much if any debt upon take over.

I admittedly don't know the new car dealership business structure, but I sure do know a thing or two about customer service. Generally that is where success is rooted from.

So apparently now we arn't allowed to have conversations about any topic you don't approve of (and all I said was that I knew her and I wouldn't question how she runs a business from where she brought it from).

I am sorry, I will keep that in mind for next time when choosing my conversation topics.
